I too was up there today in the pea souper, as you say the trod is just on the left were the paving slab ends 32 double paces and the trod comes to the original, turn right and just follow the montrail highlander studmarks all the way to crowden. What does bother me though is the bamboo wands that i have come accross ,one today just right of the first trog of soldiers lump and one last week after Dewerstone Clough flattens out just before Herne Stones. As anybody else come across these marker wands? are they route finders you think?
